    Probably not. They are probably blaming the snow on us.

    I was going to post this out of humor. Started watching it. It's was really bad. Interesting. So you drive Wyoming in winter? Must watch.

    Our worst winter storm in 50 years was the same type as that of 49. If you ever see on forecast; A warm front moving north with lots of rain. Along with a cold front or low, or whatever meeting that warm front. Stay away.
    I thought that film on 49 is more interesting because. We all know those towns and areas.
    Interesting the only ones who made it without too much loss were the Elk.
     
    InTooDeep and Dave_in_AZ Thank this.

    From the amount of sitting I do waiting to load and unload most days, I might as well go run dry van. Atleast then I can be backed into a dock while waiting.

    I think Im gonna have to have a real talk with the boss about detention pay. They need to start charging these co's $100/hr for each truck we have sitting. Otherwise they just run local trucks in front of us non-stop.

    I believe I've gotten Landstar all the documents required for Truck 5. This makes me all tingly.

    This is one of our lease operators FL Classic. One of the cleanest midroofs Ive seen in a long time. I haven't seen what it has for an engine, but from the sound, I think its a Cat.
